News and Notes for Brandon High School for the Week of October 21, 2019
 
 
College Application Week:  This week many colleges and universities are waiving their application fees if you submit them sometime this week.  Seniors who have not applied yet to the institution of their choice should look into doing so this week.
 
FAFSA OPENED for the 2020-21 school year on October 1st! - College-bound students will want to submit the FAFSA as soon as they are able, in order to be in line for as much financial aid as possible.  We will be hosting a FAFSA Workshop @ BHS on October 24th at 6:00 PM for anyone who could benefit from having a financial aid expert help guide them through the FAFSA.
 
Haunted Hallways:  This year we are organizing a free and safe trick-or-treating event in the Ortonville-Brandon Community; “Haunted Hallways.”  We estimate that we will host several hundred elementary aged children on Monday, October 28th, the date of our event.  We, at Brandon High School have taken up this cause on behalf of our district’s children, but we need your help.  Attached you will find our flyer advertising for the event, as well as a donation letter.  Any help that you could provide would be greatly appreciated!  If you have any questions please feel free to contact Dave Wyatt at dwyatt@brandon.k12.mi.us or at 248-627-1820.  All candy donations accepted as well.
 
Seniors:  Senior portraits are due to Mrs. Kelsey on November 1! It's your senior year - make sure you are in the senior section of the YEARBOOK!!! Also, seniors need to turn in their KINDERGARTEN pictures on November 1st as well!  The yearbook still has room for senior ads! See a yearbook staff member or Mrs. Kelsey for details. Order forms are available in room 230 and in the main office, as well as online.
